Who will benefit from this course

This course is for those who have entered, or are about to enter the construction and civil engineering industry as a member of the workforce, and is designed to aid the understanding potential hazards the construction worker may face on site.

It provides a practical summary of health and safety, welfare and environmental issues.  It identifies the delegate’s responsibilities for looking after themselves and others, outlines the employer’s duties and explains what should be done if the worker thinks that anyone’s health and safety is being put at risk.

The course is an ideal foundation for those wishing to obtain an industry site card.

It is also an alternative route to the QCF Level 1 Award in Health and Safety in a Construction Environment for the CSCS Labourers Card.
